@Flats_OW The problem was... Apex didn't have this massive negative reception of the game when it was coming back. Overwatch had a staple of a dead game for years and sequel has been called an overpriced dlc. And the beta actually confirmed that in the eyes of people outside of our bubble

@DENDE_MUSCLE the difference is only noticeable if you played overwatch in the first seasons, when the game wasn't bloated with random shields and heros that are broken af coming from season 3 overwatch to the beta of OW2, i enjoy ******** out of it while not being able to stand normal OW atm

No matter how hard these high profile content creators and streamers try to claim the game is fun to play I found Overwatch 2 a broken game. Its shallow mechanics don’t seem to be addressed in a year or so. It’s not just bugs and ugly UI design. #Overwatch #Overwatch2

@that_sergal Didn't see the point in making an overwatch 2. Youd think a live service game would just keep updating

tomfoolery and shenanigans

@SweatbandTv I say lifeline. because for one she's outclassed by other legends who basically swiped her old passive, other legends can basically do what she does better, and lastly, she has the same issue that launch Mercy from Overwatch had, just negating all effort done by the opposing team

No matter how hard those content creators and streamers try to pronounce the game is fun to play I found Overwatch 2 Beta a broken game. Its shallow game mechanics don’t seem to be easily addressed in a year. #Overwatch #Overwatch2

I'm hearing broken records after this first week of the Overwatch 2 Beta like: "It's the same game.." "Overwatch 1.5.." etc From my QA knowledge.. a beta test isn't a representation of the final product. Heavy on the "TEST..

@ShadowzRiS3 @player42596908 @PaladinsGame Yea the infinite loading bug is annoying, it's difficult to enjoy a game with constant bugs & the lack of new maps but wait until the new champion releases, their will be new bugs as well added to the old ones. But Yea overwatch doesn't have the bug issues which I enjoy

I was feeling nostalgic the other day and booted up Overwatch for the first time in years, did they patch out the charm of the game?? I didn't have a problem finding a match or playing, the game just felt spiritually dead.

@ArmchairW Just walking in columns behind their BMPs? Not even bounding overwatch? I mean I got the Iraqi army dudes to do that, wtf Ukraine? Also, walking like that behind a BMP will just get you an RPG in the grill for your trouble

@TheActMan_YT I saw someone else say it but there's been an increasingly common issue of games getting balaned based on the top %1 of players, the competitive scene and it ******* ruined some games. Overwatch get balanced changed into dogshit imo.

@SnapBlastPLAY Of course it is but it will always be ****, it's not gonna be like @therealcliffyb and his dead *** overwatch clone that ceased online service.. plus 343 can't afford to drop infinite and just not support it now they spent too much money on it and ads.

@Docta_Moe My problem is I don't care to improve in a game unless I REALLY care about the lore (Legendary Halo) or to PvP (Halo, Overwatch, Sea of Thieves etc). Aside from that I enjoy smacking monsters on Easy. That's a me thing; but I'll still try it for sure eventually. :D

@Lucid_TW I hope they don’t continue the old Overwatch development of removing these small and unintended things that raise the skill ceiling in a fun way without being broken Halo 2 button combos.

Overwatch as an example gives you the option to change Team colors, that is good, but their options for filters are terrible. The whole game looks weird and unnatural with them, which misses the problem colorblind people have with such stuff.

@CODCode904 my game kept crashing and submitted a ticket and they responded with we cant resolve your issue when the game is in beta , so done with blizzard and overwatch

@EvaLangwin Honestly I think a lot left but definitely some amount stayed but very small. The problem with the beta is it showed nothing that new to the general public. So they left and for the hardcore overwatch players it was just a small part of what we were promised.

@anko_bun Like when they announced a beta for overwatch 2 beta they stated they knew it was dumb to not update for so long and that the pve problems shouldn't hold up the pvp updates.

No matter how hard these high profile content creators and streamers try to claim the game is fun to play I found Overwatch 2 a broken game. Its shallow mechanics don’t seem to be addressed in a year or so. It’s not just bugs and wired UI design. #Overwatch #Overwatch2

@Zemiki The PvE is still coming? I don't know what you take issue with. The OW2 Upgrades for PvP will be free for people who own Overwatch. Buying Overwatch 2 the game is exclusivele for PvE or those that never owned the original Overwatch.

(@jijjl_jijjl) reported
@Apply This issue is that they are releasing overwatch 2 as a new game so obviously it's supposed to feel like a new game, if Blizzard had said they are updating the current overwatch then I dont think there would be this much backlash, anyways that's my personal opinion

@BlizzardCS I seem to have bad rubber banding issues while playing Overwatch, I am not alone in this. I have seen others leave game due to it so I know its not on our end. Please fix! :D

@MyPugLife_ @cloakzy Because of the glitch in apex I don’t play at all, so I’m bronze in that, and in rocket I’m high diamond/ low plat in duos and trios, and overwatch I’m high gold in all roles, yourself?

@MintBlais Totally agree would like to see it banned but Blizzard isn't doing anything about it. And it's sad they refuse to acknowledge that it exists or even try to do anything about it. Which one of the many issues that lends itself to the brokenness of OverWatch 😭
